Gino D'Acampo reveals why he quit Gordon, Gino and Fred: Road Trip show

Gino D’Acampo has said an “argument” has forced him to quit Gordon, Gino and Fred: Road Trip.

The TV chef has withdrawn from the ITV series, which he co-starred in alongside Gordon Ramsay and Fred Sirieix.

D’Acampo made the announcement in an Instagram post on Monday (20 March), explaining that his decision was inspired by a desire to protect his friendships with both Ramsay and Sirieix.

According to D’Acampo, his hand was forced by scheduling conflicts caused by production, which has caused “complications”.

“Last week, I decided not to film any more Gordon, Gino and Fred: Road Trip,” he said. “The reason is simple... nothing to do with Gordon and Fred – the friendship is very strong – it’s just because we can’t get the dates together.”

I really hope they can work it out. The show is so much fun and would love to see it continues

[DovahVokuna]

so, ...friendship before money. Respect

[daniel_seabra]

Sad to see Gino out. He has an absurdly huge importance to all the energy among the 3 in the show. I can't imagine the show without him honestly! And I don't think that he could be replaceable since the show started with him.

[andrealaforgia]

Oh no, that's a shame. You three together work so well!

[smitesmith]

I want this show to carry on, pls God don't let this happen these three are absolute gods

[CMDrive]

Wow.. It's sad but I'm happy they're still friends and not quit because of conflict.

Let's just hope at a later time when they have more times and better contracts this show would run again with three of them.

They should go independent
The 3 of them are like the Top gear boys
While they are at the top of their game, they are still immature and have a real friendship that’s easily seen on screen

Just found out about the show recently, and it’s fantastic

[giorgosarifoglu]

Hes absolutely correct...when you are dealing with contracts between friends and the lawyers and corporate crap comes into play....its no go...

[josephwolfe]

I understand what your saying and I'm glad you guys are friends still

[raegenarmer]

As long as they’re all still friends I’m okay with this when I first heard he was leaving I was worried their friendship was going bad and that would be a tragedy you don’t find friends like that everyday those boys are so close that’s important to have

[shirleyfrank]

When Gino says contracts we know he means money!

[infozone]

Gino please consider, you three guys really able to blend together very well.

[barbaramoore]

Gino made the show, him and Fred were brilliant together, ok Gordon might have been the patriarch of the 3 but other 2 were fun 🤩
❤❤

[echolot]

it has to be mentioned that their trip to Spain will air soon

[billynasty]

only Gino could total an RV without even driving it. Hope you guys can work it out, the content is great

[geodesyfox]

Gordon gets the biggest slice of pie, Gino gets the crumbs, Fred bakes the pie

[jackmidd]

This translates to Gordon was being offered more money than me.

[ForeverMohan]

we are all going to miss you Gino. It was an awesome show
